Sustainable Communication Network

As communication professionals, we have an important role to play in driving the sustainability agenda. Combining communication with the knowledge and understanding of sustainability and social business, require capabilities in multiple disciplines and when done well can influence positive behavior change, purpose, motivation and engagement of our various target audiences (consumers, B2B clients), collaboration and supply chain partners, investment communities and internal stakeholders.

In Sustainable Communication Network we will work with new knowledge, perspectives, communication and business cases, methods and tools to increase our creative, innovative and behavior change-directing communication skills to drive brand influence, competitive advantage and financial profits.
